Sword Mage Dancer

They trust their weapons as their weapons trust them, an important bond with weapons is
what they value at all costs.
CLASS | Sword Mage Dancer 1
Sword Mage Dancer
O
ne after one swords fly up from the ground,
piercing the air as a human chains her foe and
flicks her wrist, one of the swords penetrating
a doubled-over foe as death is brought down
upon it by her ally without her unsheathing her
own sword.
Raising his sword towards the elemental planes as his
swords take on bright flames and another becoming quick
with the wind, a tiefling burns his enemies to ashes when his
team is down.
Chanting words as daggers appear in the air circling
around a horde of imps, an elf sways his arm as daggers
converge upon and stab the horde down, quickly ending their
attack.
Swords Mages are the swordsmen and women amongst
the mages and can call upon the many elemental planes to
make their swords more powerful. Varying from the arts they
follow they can get up close and personal dealing deadly
damage down on foes and take out giants from their sheer
power or they can stay back and deal all sorts of support as
they help their allies take out hordes of enemies.
Telekinetic Abilities
Those that train in the ways of telekinesis found it was hard
moving unfamiliar items; though possible for day to day tasks,
it was not efficient enough to use in combat. They soon
learned that if they bonded with them and knew their history
by taking the time and studying it, they could become
spellbound and share emotions, fighting alongside their
owners. Knowledge and understanding are what these mages
go through so they can get a feel of their sword's emotions
and effectiveness during combat. Outmaneuvering their
opponents with their intellect and techniques, they have
become great fighters as well as mages to help cities defend
or lead charges in many armies. They use their telekinesis
smartly and always look for the most efficient way to end
their opponents with their spells and weapons. Some have
taken out giants from sheer skill and others have slain kings
with their telekinetic abilities. They instill shock and awe just
from the amount of weapons they can control without a drop
of sweat. They trust their weapons as their weapons trust
them, an important bond with weapons is what they value at
all costs.
Valuable and Passionate Fighters
As they grow and become stronger, their passionate bond
with their weapons give out to the rest of the world. They
fight for a righteous cause and are trained very well to keep
the bonds they have with their swords a very special one, but
sometimes it can go too far and follow whatever the swords
say. Their communication and friendship with their swords
allies can only envy, but the results of their battles says
otherwise. Very valuable and efficient, they bond with others
to see if they can grow even stronger as they try to
understand them. Teams and and guilds appreciate their
company until they let their swords talk first. They are trained
to use their abilities to be a valued member and through
contacts with other planes, their value skyrockets as their
bonds with their swords become greater and support allies
on the field. Some wield legendary weapons to slay dragons
or clear out entire hordes in no time at all. Truly some
valuable fighters indeed.
Creating a Sword Mage
When creating a Sword Mage it is important to remember
that they are not meant to lift heavy objects with their brawn
but rather their brain. They bond with their weapons by
seeing their history and believe that they should be legendary
for what they have done. Maybe one tells you a story of how
they were used to slay a Red Dragon that saved their city, but
the hero was only recognized. Another would tell you a story
of how they were used to kill thousands of people by an evil
man and are looking for redemption or revenge. How did you
begin to uncover the secrets of weapon telekinesis and
bonding? Were you chosen by the army or did you learn them
by yourself? Were you a fighter before you discovered these
arcane arts or were you a scholar first? Weapons have their
own emotions as they tell you how they feel through telepathy
and its your job to help them complete their mission or
complete your own mission with their help. Just like the
swords have their own stories, you can share your tales and
wishes as you study them. Communication is key with this
class. So what motivates you to fight and continue your
studies? Why was a specific weapon your first? How can you
achieve your own goals and help these weapons become
known for great things?
Quick Build
You can make a Sword Mage quickly by following these
suggestions. First, Intelligence should be your highest ability
score, followed by Dexterity or Strength depending on the
archetype. Second, choose the Courtier or Sage background.

Bonds of the Elements
Your magic overloads you with immense power as your
weapons sense the more knowledge you obtain. Starting at
your 6th level, your imbued weapons do magic slashing and
piercing damage. You can make your swords gain abilities of
one of the four elements, you gain access to unique abilities
based upon the elemental planes available; Fire, Water, Air,
Earth. You can only choose up to two elements for two of
your swords and change them during a short rest. When you
reach the 11th level, your contacts expand to the planes of
Ice, Ooze, Magma and Ash and you are able to choose 2
elements to use as a personal spell made from your
contacted Plane.
6th Level
Fire Plane
The Plane of Fire opens from above as it strikes down a fiery
hell onto your sword engulfing in bright flames. Your sword
deals an extra 3d6 fire damage to your enemies as you attack
them.
Water Plane
The Plane of Water splashes down upon you and your sword,
shrouding it in elemental waves. Your sword is able to create
a 5ft dome of water to protect you or anyone else inside as an
action for 1d4 rounds. The dome raises the AC to +2 for
anyone inside. Arrows are slowed if they try to enter the
dome and sword attacks do nothing. You can use a bonus
action to dispel it.
Air Plane
The Plane of Air blows down strong gusts of wind as it swirls
around your sword. Your sword gains its own initiative during
battles (using your initiative bonus) and its movement speed
increases by 10ft.
Earth Plane
The Plane of Earth covers the sword with a rocky layer. Your
weapon has a strike range of 10/20 feet (if used as an action)
and raises your AC by +1 (if used as a reaction to shield
yourself).
11th Level
Plane of Ice
The Plane of Ice opens as the area around you turns to snow
in a 5ft radius. The snow envelops you as you become one
with the cold, becoming coated in frost. You gain +1 to AC
and can cast Cone of Cold from your hands as a bonus action
with three charges. After you use three charges, you revert
back to your original form.
Plane of Ooze
The Plane of Ooze spills out acidic oozes from up above in a
15ft radius within a 60ft range from you. Any creature in the
area has to make a Dexterity saving throw and take 2d6 acid
damage on a failed save and half on a successful one.
Whenever a creature enters the area or ends their turn on the
area, the creature takes an extra 4d4 acid damage.
Plane of Magma
The Plane of Magma grants you the power to summon
molten rock from the sky. As an action you may summon
molten rock and magma to hit a 20ft radius within 40ft of
you, anyone in the radius must make a dex save or take 2d8
fire damage and be burned, taking 1d4 fire damage for 1
minute or till an action is used to put out the flames, on a
successful save the creatures only take half damage and are
not burned.
Plane of Ash
The Plane of Ash opens above and smoke covers a 15ft
radius around you. Allies inside are heavily obscured and all
attacks against them are at disadvantage.
All Or Nothing
As you gain more and more swords in your arsenal you can
now make all your swords fuse together into one giant sword
and combine all the elements you chose. At your 18th level,
you can make an attack roll against one Large creature or
larger. If you hit, the enemy has to make a Constitution saving
throw. If it fails, it takes 10d8 magical slashing damage and
any elements used on your swords are added with their
bonuses (if the bonus is not a damaging effect than add 1d6
to the damage roll). It takes half on a successful save, but the
effects of the elements still take effect.
Telekinetic Breakdown
At 20th level, once per long rest you push yourself to your
limits to form a storm of weapons, debris, and items. You
disarm all creatures of any held items centered on your self in
a 40 feet radius, as well as dealing 12d10 + 20 slashing,
piercing and bludgeoning damage to all creatures. You gain
two points of exhaustion.

Extra Sword
As you master bonding your magic to your swords, one or
two weapons aren't enough. Your practices of telekinesis and
your combat prowess grants you the ability to master more
weapons than your intellect would normally allow. You may
imbue a extra sword at 7th, 11th and 15th level.

Archetypes
The Art of the Duelist
Duelists don't like to stay back and watch the fight unfold
from afar. These mages want to join in on the fight along with
their other swords to get the enemy down faster. Learning the
Art of the Duelist means you are responsible for your swords
and what you do with them. You have accepted that learning
this art means a great responsibility is placed upon you as a
Sword Mage. Your swords aren't just your own, but also for
your allies to help take down any foe you encounter.
One With The Weapons
At 3rd level, you are able to attack personally along with your
imbued weapons and get ahead in the fight. Through your
constant sword practice and techniques you are able to take
your action to attack with your equipped weapon and attack
with your imbued swords as a bonus action.
Sword Armor
At 9th level, you can use any amount of swords to help block
an attack from your foe. Any sword used for blocking damage
is +1 AC. You may place a sword to an ally to help take on
damage as a bonus action on your turn.
Monster Seeking Swords
Your swords have understood your images of beasts,
monstrosities and giants through your teachings. They feel
your emotions as you talk about them and they want to
defend you against those monsters. At your 13th level,
whenever a beast, monstrosity or giant is within a mile
radius, your swords alert you and your team. If the creature is
in a 30ft range, you may choose to send any number of
swords to go after them. You may also split them to attack if
more monsters are around you. You also gain advantage
against monstrosities, beasts and giants.
Almighty Duelist
At 17th level, you've told more stories to your swords about
heroic battles against the strongest of monsters, weapons
that have taken down the gods, and massacring hordes of the
darkness. Your swords get excited to fight and be like those
legendary swords. You gain advantage with attacks against
dragons, celestials and undead and you can take a -5 penalty
on your attack roll to deal +10 more damage for each sword
that attacks a dragon, celestial or undead.
The Art of the Mage
More often, mages like to keep their hands clean from afar,
torturing their enemies as they get struck down by the
swords they wield. You learn that you can multi-task dealing
damage with your swords as well as casting spells that help
support your allies or deal massive damage to multiple foes.
You use your spells to your advantage whenever you are in
battle.
Another For The Flock
At 3rd level, your ways of mastering your concentration have
benefited you along your journey. You can imbue one
additional weapon to fight alongside you. That weapon able
to use proficiency and ability modifier damage.
Weapon Storm
At 9th level, you make all your weapons storm around in a 10
feet radius. Any creature within the area must make a
Constitution saving throw as the swords fly around rapidly.
On a failed save, a creature takes 4d8 slashing damage and
bleeds for 1 minute taking 1d6 damage each turn. The
creature takes half damage on a successful save and doesn't
bleed.
Mage's Countermeasures
At 13th level, you can use your reaction to slow an enemy's
weapon that you currently have studied invoking
disadvantage, or reduce the damage on a projectile by 1d8 +
Intelligence modifier + proficiency. If it drops to 0, if any
imbued sword is within 10 feet of you and is visible, you can
all make an attack roll. If its successful, you can force the
swords to come towards the enemy. Each dealing their
respective damage.
Summon Giant Sword
At 17th level, you use all your concentration and select a point
and roll a 1d4 for the amount of turns it will take to to
summon it. Once summoned, a giant sword will slam into a
30 feet radius, slicing to the ground and any enemy in the
area will take 12d6 piercing + 40 thunder damage. enemies 5
feet away from the giant sword are flown outwards 15 feet.
You can do this again after finishing a long rest.

Techniques
Mastery Of Weapon Fighting Allows you to imbue one extra
weapon, this weapon also gets proficiency to attack and
ability modifier to damage.
Staying Back Is Best
Sometimes staying back helps your allies get things done or
doesn't get blood on your hands. You are able to imbue
ranged weapons as an attack and get +5 on your attack rolls,
but can use only one other imbued weapon as it takes more
concentration.
Chains Of Binding
Bonus action, you can shoot out chains from your hands and
attempt to grapple an enemy up to 120 feet away. The enemy
has to make a Strength saving throw against your spell save
DC or else become grappled. The creature can attempt to
break free from your chains by doing a Strength check
against your spell save DC.
Shielded
You realize that a great defense helps make the best offense
and help the survivability of your team. You are now able to
imbue a shield that floats around you or an ally and must
remain with 5ft of them granting the shields bonus. If the ally
has a shield already, the bonus does not come into effect.
Daggers Everywhere
You've learned how to create daggers out of thin air and rain
them down onto your enemies. You gain three charges of the
spell Cloud of Daggers and you regain these at the end of a
long rest.
Two handed Weapons
You have the ability to imbue two-handed weapons that you
have studied. Versatile weapons will also be considered two-
handed when imbued. Whenever you attack with this
weapon, you can't attack with your other imbued weapons as
it takes a lot of concentration, but you gain an additional +8 to
the attack damage.
Retaliation
Sometimes the enemy wins, but always having the last laugh
is what you aim for in every battle. If an enemy attacks you
and hits, and there is a visible, imbued sword 10 feet away
from you, you can use your reaction to attack the enemy with
your imbued sword. Up to one sword can be used for this
technique.
Hidden Blade
While an enemy focuses onto you, you can make a Stealth
check to one of your swords. On a successful check, you can
stab the enemy in the back as an action and gain advantage.
On a failed check, you gain disadvantage on your next attack
roll.
5 CLASS | GUNMAGE
Collateral Damage
You have learned since your training that the faster the sword
goes, the more enemies you can take down. One of your
imbued swords can exceed the sound barrier as it attacks
multiple enemies. If there are up to three enemies 5 feet
away from each other, you can use your bonus action to drive
your sword through them and make an attack roll for each
enemy you go through.
Parry
You've learned the arts of parrying from generations of
teachings and try to incorporate them using your imbued
swords. If an enemy attacks you with a melee weapon and
there is an imbued sword 5 feet away from you, you can use
your reaction to parry the attack and reduce it by 1d6 + your
Int-modifier. You can only do this three times until you need a
short rest.
Disarm
You may attempt to use an action to disarm an enemy if they
are wielding a weapon you have studied with. The target
must roll a Strength saving throw against your spell DC. If
the creature fails, they let go of the weapon they are currently
holding.
Tendon Swipe
As a reaction when an enemy disengages you can still make
an opportunity attack if it hits you reduces there speed by half
but deal no damage.
Wall of Swords
You have learnt how to draw swords from nowhere and
create a defensive ring of blades around you from many days
of intense practice. You can use your action to create a ringed
wall of blades around your self of up to 10 feet in diameter,
10 feet high and 1 foot thick. Any creature within 5 feet of the
wall must make a Dexterity saving throw against your spell
DC. On a failed save, a creature takes 5d6 magical piercing
damage and takes half on a successful save. Your speed is
reduced to 0 while you are using this technique and you
cannot have moved previously that turn. this ability can last
for concentration up to 10 min.
